    09.22.25 | Articles, News

    Join us as we travel through California & Ghana!

    Have you heard? The next legs of our Sankofa Pilgrimage have been announced! We invite you to join us as we learn, reflect, and journey together in faith as we continue this sacred work of racial justice through these opportunities:

    • Pre-Study Sessions: April 15 – May 27, 2026 (seven weeks, online, open to all)
    • Southern California Pilgrimage: Four Saturdays in May & June 2026
    • Northern California Pilgrimage: July 3–7, 2026
    • Ghana Pilgrimage: January 20 – February 5, 2027

    Our upcoming California and Ghana experiences will continue the pattern of learning, site visits, and nightly reflection circles that were at the core of our previous trips. And they will be paired with our in-depth pre-travel learning that is free and open to all – even those who are unable to join us for travel.

    Start blocking out your schedule so you can join us and be sure to spread the word with your friends, family, and neighbors!
